At Tootsie's in a bottle: aroma is grainy mostly. Sweetish with that cheap blonde ale feel. Not great.

Tennessee Brew Works Wildwood Flower
Draft at Sweet P’s BBQ in Knoxville because I was rushed. I expected this to be terrible based on the ratings but it’s actually a nice Belgian style ale. The yeast flavor is right with a nice crisp, medium bitterness. Maybe even a hint of tripel lurking in there. Nice.

Tennessee Brew Works Petite Barleywine
500 ml. 2022 edition bottle. Clear, deep copper brew with a lasting thin disc of creamy foam. Aroma of booze, bread, caramel, whiskey, cherry, and earthy toasted barrel. Tastes of the same mix but kind of washed out. Very bitter, wooden boozy finish. Medium bodied with low-medium carbonation and a decent balance. Over a year in the bottle and still disappointing.

Tennessee Brew Works Urban Hiker
Draft at AT&T Field. Pours a clear gold with a finger of head that settles into a ring. Pale and lightly sweet malts, a hint of fruit and straw, not much else. Light-bodied, with modest carbonation and a crisp, light, clean mouthfeel. Standard pale lager, not bad.

Tennessee Brew Works Walk the Lime
Very nice light and fruity aroma. Orange body, thin white head. Not overly heavy like a lot of wheat ales, good amount of tart lime to make it interesting. The lime tastes as real as the lime you would put in a corona, rind and all. The palate is just light enough with a nice finish. This is a great summer beer.

Tennessee Brew Works 1927 IPA
Smells malty, hoppy and dank all at the same time. Pours dark orange with a fluffy white head. Tastes like an IPA should. Hoppy with a hint of balancing sweetness, not trying to do too much. The palate is smooth with good carbonation. Good beer for a hot day. I would drink this again.

Tennessee Brew Works / Hutton & Smith Hazy Trails
Very nice hazy IPA, offering up honeydew and grapefruit on top of tropical notes and a lime zest undertone. Finishes with a slight chive funkiness on top of cracker malt and a touch of pine. Not much bitterness, but there's a slight bit of astringency as the pint warms. Still, a good beer.

Woof. Lots of wet cardboard, bitter pine, and cough syrup, loaded up with boozy warmth and oily, medicinal bitterness. Trying to find a positive but failing. Very bad DIPA.

Tennessee Brew Works King Chestnut
Modest notes of cocoa and toasted bread, backed up by a hint of caramel and a slight nuttiness on the back end. Grows too bitter in the finish for the mildness of the malts. Decent.

Tennessee Brew Works Hopped & Devoted
Hazy pale that could double as a session NEIPA. Up front waves of berry, grapefruit pith, peach, and lychee, backed up by a hint of white bread. No malt presence whatsoever. Mild mineral and pine bitterness on the finish. Wish the pint was ad good as the cause.

Tennessee Brew Works B.A. Whiskey Smash
A decent beer approximation of a whisky smash, but not really great at being either. Strong ale notes bring a mild caramel and brandied fruit backbone, while the mixed drink side offers up tart lemon and citrus zest, with a hint of mint on the back end. Finishes tart and boozy, with a bourbon and oak fade laced with lemon juice. One of those beers that makes me ponder its purpose; why not just have a whisky smash? It's not like it takes a mixologist to make one.

Draft pour, ruby red. Smells like beets and soil. I really like what they did here. Tastes like beet juice mixed into beer. I’ve had this in a sour version before but this is a smooth and easy beer. Tastes like beets.

Tennessee Brew Works B.A. Whiskey Smash
Draft pour. Amber color with a whiskey sour aroma. I like this. It’s like a mixed drink with whiskey notes but a citrus, grapefruit and orange rind base running through it.

Tennessee Brew Works Wildwood Flower
12 oz. bottle from Kroger in Brentwood, TN. Pours a clear pale gold color with a thick white head and excellent retention. Good lacing. Strong Belgian yeast aroma. As the nose suggests, the flavor is dominated by Belgian yeast. Soft carbonation. Medium body. The 6.8% ABV is well hidden. Overall, okay for the style, but not a style I like. Tick.

Tennessee Brew Works Tenn No. 12 Imperial Porter
Decent, heavy on the Dickel and oak, with notes of chocolate, molasses, cola, caramel, and a firm woody bitterness. Comes off a bit tame on the back end, the oak dominating any lingering traces of booze. Smells nice, though.
